******* supermarket "butchers"

Woot feild&flour have added some more cuts to their boxes
Onglet, pigs trotters, oxtail and braising steak and they are looking into more.

so pig trotters by the look of it this month :eek: they do disgust me, I have something about nails and teeth in meat. Also the trotters always looked many when I worked in the slaughter house.
Think I will have to slow cook them, pull meat of and make into ball/fritter and deep fry.
 
Following on, now received the free new improved sausages to try, will be oven cooking them with mash tonight and Sunday morning trying them fried.
Also hot new cuts this month and I will do a price comparison. I have no idea which way it will go.

~900g ribs split between to packets / tesco pork ribs 900g £3.60
485g Onglet steak (Sunday's dinner) / waitrose skirt steak 485g £3.39
315g prime diced lamb (that'll be a kebab) /tesco diced lamb 300g £4.00
400g lamb mince / tesco lamb mince 300g £2.63
635g oxtail / tesco 700g £4.20
300g beef steak strips / tesco healthy living beef stir fry 350g £3.20
415g lamb chump / no supermarket comparison google says £3.33
300g beef mince / Tesco 250g beef mince £1.50
480g braising steak / Tesco beef casserole steak 450g £4.00
1010g leg of mutton / 900g tesco half lamb leg £7.20
825g pigs trotters (god they disgust me, will be eating them though, ever since working in a slaughter house. They just look grubby and horriable(although these are clean)) / no supermarket equivalent £1.62
500g stewing steak Free
420g sausages Free
470g pigs cheeks Free

Excluding the three free samples, that comes to £64.04p, supermarket £40.67
Surprised it that big a gap, still worth it IMO, it is better qaulity and range. You just have to look at colour and hanging time.
If I could find all the beef at 28day hang time at the supermarket then I would. Expect a different result.


Every box. You get a car leaflet with farm/kill info and recipes. This month. Also has the new cuts range

What's the onglet steak like?

I always assumed that onglet/skirt steak tasted similar to shin but from that description it looks like I may have been wrong with that.
 
No idea, haven't had Onglet before. I've had skirt before. But it doesn't look like this. There seems to be naming discrepancies when you get to these. Cuts and no one can decide. I will let you know.

Planning on doing the bakers brothers steak sandwich thing on Sunday.
 
What's the 'Monthly Point' thing? Loyalty programme or healthy living stuff?

Unfortunately the price difference is too great for me at this time (and my freezer is basically unuseable atm - so badly frosted) but maybe when I have more disposable income I'll give it a whirl.
 
This thread has made me feel incredibly hungry! My parents order from Donald Russell, and the occasional steak is liberated when I go to visit them :D It's all very nice. I'll look in to placing an order to try some meat from field&flower I think.
 
Interested to hear some feedback on the ostrich if anyone ordered?

Also, the croc, i want to order some croc, but with that, it depends what its been fed on because, if you feed it fish, i will taste like fish, feed it chicken, it will taste a bit like chicken.
 
That meat does seem very expensive Glaucus, but I guess it pales into insignificance if you enjoy food.

Only a crate or two of beer a month after all.
 
WHat site?

Edit - nvm should read your sig.

Remember I have compared it to tescos bog standard range, rather than their finest. So qaulity wise it's not really a fair comparison. As you say it depends how much you like your food.

What offer is this btw? I just looked on the site and I can see the free steaks offer (tempting) but I'm wondering if I've missed something.

The £39 for £79 worth of meat selection pack. It's a 'New customer offer'.

I couldn't see the steaks offer today though, hmm strange.

Btw 5kg packs of chicken are on 'this week only' discount.
